Martin,

Use the shorter camber link on a low carpet track... Never try, but isn't it more difficult to drive than the stock carpet setup ( t3 2012 ) ?

Next week end i will have a practice for the first round of national french on carpet with Ride 36. With these inapropriate tyres i have to find a setup with better overal grip than the stock setup.

Is the LRP carpet 2 additive better than the cs high grip when the traction is bad ?

Thanks for tips


I have the setup for the car that won this race;

It was on Sorex 32's.
I'll try to remember to upload it later then send you a link.

Thanks for sharing.

But the track where i will drive have less grip than your. And ride 36 on this carpet will reduce the overal grip.

Possibly, but the video I put on there was with Sorex 32's and the grip was was described as low-medium.

From what I gather the 32 Ride tyres have a lot of grip, so the 36's will have a bit less, I think you'll find it's similar.
If nothing else it gives you some other settings to try.

It could be worth trying the -0.75mm hexes too.
